To use the Regedit: Save the REG File to your hard disk. Double click it and answer yes to
the import prompt. REG files can be viewed in Notepad by right clicking on the file and
selecting Edit.

Do NOT export the entire registry and then Import it. You will end up
with quite a mess! That is not the way to import the registry.
Export the line you're going to change, just in case you need it
back. That will work.
